Russian President Vladimir Putin paid surprise visit to Khmeimim Airbase in Syria’s Latakia province on Monday, December 11. As he prepared to land, he was met by an escort of Su-30SM fighter jets.

During this unannounced visit Putin met with Syrian president Assad and made an important announcement regarding partial withdrawal of Russian troops from Syria following the defeat of ISIS. Putin added that if terrorists reappeared in Syria, Russian troops would be back.

Russia’s Enormous Victory & End of ISIS

Russian Syria op is one of the most successful military ops of all time. As a result of Russian BKC (Russian joint military-space forces) involvement along with Syrian ground troops, ISIS has been squeezed out of all cities in Syria, leaving only some straggling groups in the country, with which Syrian army is still dealing on the ground. Syrian government today controls most of the country’s territory. When Russia got involved in Syria 2 years ago, Assad and Syrian army controlled 14% of the country’s territory, rebels were located as close as 8 kilometers from Assad’s palace, Syrian army was on its last legs with deserters leaving in droves. It was expected that any day Assad would lose power and Syria would be torn to pieces by warring factions and foreign powers.

The task the Russian Army had in Syria seemed insurmountable and extremely complex. Not only it was of a military nature, but it was diplomatic, moderating and peacemaking as well.

During the past 2 years of Syrian involvement, in military operations Russia hasn’t lost a single jet, except the Turkish provocation with the downing of the Russian Su. One single flying regiment took part in operations; overall Russian troops in Syria numbered no more than 4-5 thousand. This relatively small number of troops managed to make 30,000 flights and destroy most of the ISIS top commanders, and most of the Islamic State terrorists’ infrastructure, including arms depots, training camps, factories, oil transports and money laundering rings. Estimated combined ISIS losses are 32,000 troops. Russian instructors re-trained and turned around the demoralized Syrian army in such a way that it began winning. The most important Syrian army operations were developed and executed under the command of Russian higher officers. The result of such operations was the liberation of all major Syrian cities, securing of oil fields and the majority of the country’s territory.

The political, diplomatic and peacemaking results have been equally impressive. Only Russia managed to sit down at one table the seemingly irreconcilable enemies, including Iran, Turkey, Syrian government and opposition/ rebels/ various factions. Political process is taking place and elections are coming, which was unimaginable just recently. Syria today is day and night compared to what it was just two years ago.

All this is especially impressive if you compare it to the staggering fiasco of the US/EU/NATO’s involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan, as well as Syria. Incidentally, it has been brought to my attention that following Russia’s astounding victory in Syria, US and France are trying to steal this victory, declaring it theirs and ignoring the reality. This is also nothing new — remember WWI and WWII and the re-writing of history!

Of course, this is far from being the end. The new strategy for securing the rest of the country, maintaining peace and squeezing US out of Syria has to be implemented, political changes have to take place. But the active military phase is over.

After the surprise Syria stop-over, where he thanked the troops, met with Assad and declared the end of Syria op, Putin in the same day visited Egypt and Turkey.

This whole 1-day, 3-country Middle East turbo-tour is the continuation of Putin’s restructuring and rebalancing of the Middle East, as discussed in my recent interview A New Tsar Arrived. But the timing is also such that this Middle East tour serves as Putin and Russia’s response to Trump’s decision to consider Jerusalem the capital of Israel and to move the US embassy from Tel-Aviv to Jerusalem.

Why did Trump make such announcement right before Holidays? It has already met with much condemnation around the world and generated a new wave of violence and anti-US hatred. There are calls for the 3rd Intifada (Palestinian resistance war against Israel). This announcement is also likely to create new waves of terror attacks in US, Israel and other countries. Just yesterday we had terror attack attempt at the Bus Terminal in Manhattan, and more are expected during Christmas/New Year. Politicians and lay people alike have dubbed Trump’s decision ‘irresponsible and short-sighted.’

The reason Trump saw fit to make such an announcement is very simple and in line with my original predictions from the Trump ESR16 and ESW1: WILL TRUMP SURVIVE HIS FIRST TERM. Trump is in a ‘straitjacket’ and in a fight for survival, being criticized and threatened by various forces. This is by no means a justification of his actions, but merely a reminder that I predicted this since 2016, before the US election outcome was even known.

Trump is trying to avoid impeachment with all his might. In this survival mode he, in a typical American fashion, doesn’t care how his words or actions will impact the world. He is simply thinking about himself. If he were a private citizen, that might be at least understandable, if not forgivable. But it doesn’t work at all if one calls himself a US president.

The Israeli/ Jewish lobby in the US is one of the most powerful. Therefore, for Trump it is crucial to have it in his corner. It is as crucial as having Pentagon and US army in his corner, or at least neutral so they wouldn’t support his impeachment. To appease Pentagon/US army Trump does constant saber-rattling against N. Korea, threatening to begin a nuclear war. If it’s not N. Korea, it is Iran, Syria, or whatever enemy is next in line.

And to appease the Jewish/Israel lobby Trump recognizes Jerusalem as Israel’s capital. All very logical actions from his standpoint — and the hell with the rest of the world. This yet again demonstrates how unfit the USA, this ‘exceptional nation’ and ‘sole super-power,’ is for the role of the global leader.

This is where Russia the Great Balancer comes in. Putin’s announcement of Russian troops withdrawal from Syria stands in stark contrast to Trump/USA’s bullying position.

By contrast with Trump, Putin announced during meetings with Egypt’s el-Sisi and Turkey’s Erdogan that only the joint negotiations between Israel and Palestine should decide the status of Jerusalem. This measured and reasonable position yet again shows who the true world leader really is; who brings peace to the Middle East, and who provokes wars.

Putin is confirming what I often talk about: Russia is the unifying, balancing and pacifying force in the Middle East and globally. This role of Russia the Great Balancer will continue intensifying during the ongoing EARTH SHIFT.

**The Syrian energy vortex is actually a pentagram. In the hands of the Light forces, this pentagram is an instrument of good that can transform the whole Middle East and can be a huge transmitter of positive feminine energy. In the hands of the dark, this pentagram can create much suffering, as people in Syria have experienced in the last few years. All five points of Syria pentagram are key towns in Syria that had a strong connection with the Goddess energy in their rich past. The five cities include Homs, Aleppo, Raqqa, Palmyra and Manbij.** Palmyra is the birthplace of Zenobia, the queen who lead the revolt against the oppressive Roman empire.

I would like to Ask Lada for your Earth Shift assessment of this view. There does seem to be a lot of back and forth on Palmyra and ongoing efforts to cut off water supply to Aleppo.

Dear Nancy, an excellent question. In our haste to keep up with major geopolitical developments, the pace of which is greatly expedited during the Great Earth Shift, we often forget about looking at the problem from the multi-dimensional perspective. But only by rising above the ‘battlefield’ Earth, only by elevating ourselves above what is perceived as important when we brew in the karmic soup of human emotions, can we glean the broad cosmic picture and gain a perspective of truth that can help us define our future.

One of the truths impossible to deny, regardless of what creed you subscribe to, is that everything in our world is energy. The constant energy exchange is how our world – and the multi-dimensional universe we live in – breathes and evolves.

This energy exchange can be positively or negatively charged. Who determines what constitutes a positive or negative charge? Criteria are very different, depending on what dimension you are in and what ‘realm’ you are from.

In human 3D – lower 4D society, currently in existence here on Earth, we very briefly may define ‘positive charge’ as that which supports and creates life and allows for growth and expansion of consciousness.

A ‘negative charge’ is the opposite: that which threatens or destroys life, as well as any possibility of positive growth of consciousness.

For short, people often refer to these charges as ‘light’ vs. ‘dark.’ This is an expedient shortcut and usually serves its purpose. However, I have to mention (this is well outside of today’s topic) that this is not always exactly accurate.

Light and dark, in their pure form, can also be identified as yang and yin. By themselves, these are neutral categories of energy. It is how we use them that makes all the difference.

In reality, it is the harmony between light and dark, yin and yang that creates the necessary balance, and therefore supports life, expands consciousness and facilitates a better future.

The truth is that it is a severe imbalance of yin/yang and light/dark that is creating catastrophic situations on our planet. The problem of the Earthly human society is that we have a severe imbalance of the yin and yang energies, which is what creates the preponderance of negatively charged dark energy. This is where the true problem lies, and this is why Russia – the Great Balancer has such a hard time trying to keep this world spinning.

This problem, which many feel on an intuitive level but cannot put their finger on, becomes tangible and visible to a naked eye if you learn to quantify energy through Lada Ray QUANTUM CALIBRATIONS. The new Geo Calibrations theory further expands this ability.

Our universe is relative and based on contrast. Therefore, when you translate any problem into a comparative numeric scale, and if you systematize and define your criteria, you’ll learn a great deal about your subject and the world around you. On a very down-to-earth, rudimentary level, this is what Quantum and Geo Calibrations allow us to accomplish (of course, there is so much more to it).

ENERGY PORTALS, ENERGY VORTEXES & ENERGY KNOTS

Now we are getting into the issue of energy portals and energy vortexes. Since these are new notions for this human civilization, there is no agreement on terms so far. Of course, the main premise is always the same: energy exchange and how said energy exchange is used by us. In that, I am in a complete agreement with the aforementioned article.

Here is how I define the energy portals and energy vortexes (and you’ll see below why my definitions are important):

ENERGY PORTAL is a geo location which serves as a gateway and focal point for Mother Earth’s energy exchange.

This energy exchange is threefold: 1. for the benefit of all entities populating Planet Earth in 3D and other realms, 2. for inner Mother Earth’s needs, 3. between the Cosmos (or universe, or source) and Mother Earth.

Depending on the condition of human society, levels of energy and pollution, how actively and by what forces such portal is being used, it may be well-functioning or not; it may posses the preponderance of the energy of light or dark, or be neutral. Due to the adverse human factor and in order to protect the Mother Earth, many formerly active portals have been sealed. For the same purpose, many portals are also well-hidden from the human eye.

Energy portals have the ability to move around the planet. Some fresh energy portals have opened up and now are predominant (by fresh I mean less than 2000 years; the youngest may be a mere couple of hundred years old). At the same time, other, formerly very important ancient portals lost their potency due to human abuse.

ENERGY VORTEX is the powerful energy created and transmitted by a presently active, well-functioning energy portal (or series of portals). Energy vortex represents an alive and actively breathing, pulsating portal, through which a substantial energy exchange is taking place. On human level, energy vortex possesses a substantial, or spectacular, power to influence and moderate energy on Earth.

As I understand, the article quoted above does not provide a definition of a vortex, however, it implies a different meaning (a vortex is a combination of focal energy points or knots?) than the definition I am offering you.

ENERGY KNOT is an energy entanglement as a result of many contrasting energies converging in one geo location. Energy knot may on occasion be generated by a variety of energies, including cosmic, alien, multi-dimensional, and/or the imbalanced energies of the Earth. But most often such knots occur as a result of imbalanced and self-serving human activity and/or as a result of a long-term human abuse of a portal.

THE ENERGY EXCHANGE OF THE MOTHER EARTH

It is important to understand that our beloved Planet Earth is a living, breathing, evolving being, which hosts us, humans, like she hosts all other types of life. In this regard, it is painful to watch what humans, in their fear, greed and hatred, do to our beautiful planet. This is a very big and difficult topic indeed, and I will leave it for another day.

Today, I want to focus on energy portals and energy vortexes. As you know, I always look at things multi-dimensionally and globally. In this regard, it is hard to separate what is happening in Syria from the rest of the world.

As I pointed out, our Earth is a living, breathing being. Therefore, the entire body of Earth is covered with energy portals, as well as energy lines connecting important portals and energy points. These are called either Dragon Lines or Ley Lines.

Energy portals may be perceived as chakras of our planet – they allow for energy exchange. As such, they exist all over Earth.

Therefore, technically, energy portals/vortexes are located in many places on Earth. Now, this begs the question: why don’t humans perceive them? Why, based on articles such as the one quoted by Nancy, it appears that they are a rare and exceptional occurrence?

The answer to this is multi-fold:

First: Due to the karmic issues resulting from excessive materialism and rejection of a true connection with the spirit (or source) most humans lost the ability to see and perceive energy.

Second: In fact we all know of large energy portals and powerful vortexes. It’s just that the majority of humans don’t perceive them as such due to the fact that these very important and powerful geo locations have been claimed by certain power structures, allowing them to exert their power over large groups and territories, sometimes for better, and sometimes for worse. As a few examples of such ‘claimed’ vortexes: Pentagon and CIA headquarters in the USA; the Vatican; the Moscow Kremlin in Russia.

Third: Energy portals on our planet are of different sizes. Due to many factors, some are a lot bigger and much more important than others. A large and powerful portal/vortex is easier to perceive than a smaller one.

Fourth, and perhaps most important!

Humans had screwed up a huge number of great energy portals in the past, and they continue damaging and polluting them in the present. Therefore, many portals have been sealed by Mother Earth to protect them from human invasion. This certainly limits the ability of humanity to evolve, but it is a must to protect Mother Earth.

Other very important portals have been hidden in such areas on our planet where humans cannot reach. I will give you a hint: many important ancient portals are located in northern Urals, Siberian Taiga, Lake Baikal, and Russia’s Far North, where few humans ever venture. There are some others, located in Antarctica and at the bottom of oceans. Again, these hidden vortexes allow Mother Earth to breathe.

There used to be vortexes hidden in the South American rain forest as well as in Australia, and some are still there. But every year they get more and more polluted as human greed and predatory Western capitalism reaches deeper and deeper into previously pristine geo locations. I am not even going to bring up the painful issue of the oceans and its catastrophic pollution levels. All this clogs and drains the energy of vortexes.

There is so much more to the story, but even from this perspective alone you can see why Russia – the Great Balancer has to possess such large territory and why no aggressor was ever able to take over Russia. For a long time, Russia’s dominance over such large territory has kept pristine and breathing the hidden energy vortexes of Siberia and the Far North.

MIDDLE EAST AND SYRIA ENERGY PORTALS

In Syria and Middle East’s case we are dealing with Energy Portals, rather than Energy Vortexes. According to my definition of the difference between the two, energy vortexes are presently active and well-functioning energy portals. Clearly, except a few locations, Syria/Middle East hardly possess any such vortexes. The portal may be there, but it’s either sealed or diminished.

Due to centuries of strife, neglect and misuse, most, if not all, energy portals of the Middle East are either severely damaged, sealed or dead. The Mother Earth has since relocated elsewhere much of the power associated with the majority of those ancient portals.

However, due to human genetic memory often expressed as a built-in longing for the ‘good old days,’ there is still a lot of value attached to ancient portals of the Middle East. Due to their important geo location and historic significance, Syria portals are a big prize among them.

Yes, on a geopolitical/economic level there is a fight for the gas routes to Europe. However, this is only part of the story. It goes much deeper. On the energy level, the region’s past prosperity and glory remains a deep-seated human memory. Palmyra was once magnificent and the region was once a prosperous and bustling geo location. But it’s all in the past. Basically, there is a fight based on the memory of what was and wistful longing for what could have been.

Note, there is a great deal of difference to how the human energy vs. the Mother Earth energy would feel to us. In the case of Syria and Palmyra portals, it is human energy that is predominant (NOT Mother Earth energy). In most cases there is a confrontation between various human energies, oftentimes also either assisted by or conflicting with the Earth energy. It is these screaming for help, ailing and swollen energy knots that may be perceived by some as ‘vortexes.’

However, as I pointed out above, there is quite a bit of the phantom memory of the past glory. Much of the positive energy has been long depleted. Instead, what’s left has turned into negatively-charged energy knots, fortified and expanded due to negative charge of various human forces converging in the region, such as ISIS and Al-Nusra, US/West, Turkey, Israel, Saudis and Qatar.

That’s not to say that, for instance, Palmyra portal may not become healthy again at some point in the future. However, this won’t happen under current circumstances. The energy is presently highly polluted and damaged; it is negative and dark. Basically, the ongoing fight is about the dominance of either light or dark over these ancient portals turned energy knots. Energy knots usually exert much regional influence by spreading the energy around through Ley Lines and inducing more negativity. It is true that if such energy knots fall into the wrong hands, the whole region will be plunged into even more darkness. The back and forth fights over Palmyra and other Syria locations are a sign of very significant swollen energy knots formed in the region.

The complex Syria situation is akin to the global Earth Shift and geopolitical processes in miniature: the same ping-pong goes on between US/West and Russia, and USA and China, albeit with less blood and with much higher stakes. In this regard, the importance of Syria as a litmus test for mankind cannot be underestimated.

Generally, one has to be careful about overusing one of the sacred geometry symbols, in this case a pentagram, to prove a point. There are other energy portals in Syria, most notably the KhmeimimAir Base, which are presently more important and in better condition. The fact that the base is currently under Russian control is indicative of the beginnings of a positive shift in Syria, Middle East and Mediterranean. By extension, it also indicates a shift of the balance of power in the world.

Ancient Palmyra is the biggest energy portal in the area and it’s in horrific condition. This is why the situation around it has been in so much flux. Sensing this, to fortify the portal and infuse it with a surge of positive energy, Russians not only helped liberate Palmyra, but also tried to raise the energy by Gergiev Orchestra performing in the ancient Palmyra ruins. They succeeded, albeit temporarily – the neglect and abuse of the portal is too severe;; it’ll take a while to reverse the damage. Russians also made a lot of effort to restore Palmyra’s ancient sites – for the same purpose. As we see, the Palmyra chakra is still severely ailing, but the energy knot is being slowly unraveled. (Raising Chi and Healing Syria: Gergiev Orchestra’s Classic Russian Music In Palmyra Ruins).

It has to be said that its terrible state is in big part due to the general state of the Middle East. There is too much infighting, mutual hatred and rivalry between peoples who should be close relatives. Instead of working together and living in peace, they try to undercut or eliminate each other. This severely weakens energy centers, such as Palmyra, which have to constantly absorb this kind of deadly energy.

Many of us are angry (as we should be) at the dark and negative role the US/EU/NATO/West play in Syria and generally, the Middle East. As it has been for centuries, the West makes the bad situation worse.

The Earthly energy portals have paramount importance not only for our planet, but also for all of us. They are, in fact, energy wells into which humans, animals and plants can tap to replenish their energy and borrow more energy, if needed. But energy portals have to be maintained, protected and respected.

When they are severely weakened or damaged due to excessive and mindless abuse by humans, as is happening almost everywhere in the Middle East, as well as Ukraine, it leads to wars and cataclysms.

It also wide opens the door for the negative dark forces to come in and tear apart those poor tribes, nations or countries that disrespected their heritage and/or their own people. In our day and age, the forces of radical Islamism, fascism (such as Ukro-Nazism) and the aggressive West usually play the part of such dark forces.

Palmyra’s portal is presently too weak, too drained and polluted to replenish the people who are supposed to defend it. This is the reason Palmyra is so hard to defend: it actually drains her defenders, rather than empowering them.

Palmyra’s undecided fate is a strong indicator that the world is constantly shaking and swaying and can’t find its balance during the Earth Shift.

More so, it is an indication that the Great Earth Shift is sorely needed. Unless humans raise their consciousness and heal their karma, there is no future for mankind. The Great Earth Shift is a consequence of human abuse of themselves and their environment. But it is also our greatest hope for a better tomorrow.

In conclusion, I also want to mention that during the Earth Shift there are geo locations in the world that tend to provide stability in the quickly changing world. However, there are also geo locations experiencing stronger turbulence: they are the crossroads of the world. Syria, Turkey and Ukraine are some of the contemporary crossroads. EU may be becoming one, as well. Such crossroads tend to become the knots of violence during Earth Shift.

Just like energy portals that shift around the planet, the knots can suddenly form, but they may also suddenly dissipate. Today’s crossroads and knots may unravel tomorrow, while the new ones may form elsewhere on the planet, where it’s least expected. Of course, it only seems sudden to those who do not pay attention. Those who do, see it coming well before it happens.

In the latter, I explained the long-cherished US plan to attack Iran and how Russia since mid-2000s was quietly protecting Iran by all means possible. The reason Russia had to continuously run interference was due to the fact that US invasion of Iran was set in stone after Iraq and Afghanistan, and it was clear that Iran would not be unable to withstand a massive simultaneous attack by US from sea and air. In the former, I expanded on how Russians arranged the protection of Iran via the elimination of US base and military hardware in Georgia, and how certain apt demos of Russian electronic warfare capabilities for the US Navy and airforce cooled off Pentagon and Washington hotheads.

Russia couldn’t watch over Iran forever. Iran, a sovereign country, needed to be given the means of protecting itself. Only Russian technology can effectively shield anyone against a US airstrike. Therefore, in mid-2000s the deal for the supply of Russian S-300 missile defence systems was signed.

After the S-300 agreement materialized, the West immediately expanded anti-Iran sanctions to include such defence weapons, which at the time prevented Russia from fulfilling the contract. It was understandable: US needed Iran defenceless against their attack. At the time Medvedev was Russian president and he tried to work with the West, therefore agreeing to the S-300 deal freeze. Medvedev’s decision was met with criticism in both Russia and Iran. That said, I can tell you with confidence that if US did attack Iran Russia would have supplied the S-300 and anything else necessary. But at the time, other, quiet and even more convincing means were found for preventing the US aggression. Read above-linked articles where I describe what happened during Georgian mini-war 2008 and how Russian electronic jamming devices sent clear warnings to US Navy that an attack on Iran could be their last.

It has to be noted that S-300 is the older, shorter range model that covers 200-300 km radius. S-400 is the newer, longer range system; the latest model is S-500, and yet more advanced systems are in the works.

S-400 at Moscow Victory Day Parade May 9, 2010

After US/NATO began flexing their muscles in the Baltics and Poland, and after the Kiev ukro-nazi coup, Russia finally placed S-400 systems in Kaliningrad, the Russian enclave sandwiched between today’s Poland and Lithuania on the Baltic shore. Since 2015, after Turkey shot down Russian jet, Russia now uses S-400 in Syria to protect its military.

S-400 arriving to Syria

There is no weapon in existence that can counter Russian S-class missile defence systems. Speaking of their effectiveness and impact: US and NATO complain that the Kaliningrad S-400s cover large parts of Central, Northern and Eastern Europe, thus severely limiting the ability of NATO/US airforce to fly there. Similarly US/NATO and Turkey complain that S-400s in Syria cover half of Turkey and parts of the Middle East, including NATO military bases.

Syria: S-400 installed on Khmeimim airbase – coverage of the Middle East

This means that anyone flying over Syria needs Russian permission. It also means that any US/NATO, Saudi or Turkish jets can be shot down on takeoff on their territory (more about that in ESR5: Syria Game Changer and ESR7: Turkish Conundrum).

Needless to say, S-400 in Syria and Kaliningrad act as convincing ambassadors of peace and the most effective reminder to all parties not to try anything funny.

S-400 Triumf being purchased by India

You may recall the 2014 joke that Putin played master chess, while Obama played marbles. I said back then that after Crimea and Donbass fiascos, when turning Ukraine into a long-term anti-Russia failed, US began employing smarter people… but not smart enough. Seemingly a win for Obama Administration, the 2015 Iran deal culminating in lifting of Iran sanctions in exchange for Iran abandoning its uranium enrichment program is, in fact, yet another hidden fail.

Here is why.

Last year, Washington paraded as one of its successes the fact that an agreement with Iran was reached, which capped Iran’s ability to enrich uranium sufficiently in order to produce nuclear weapons. In exchange, old Iran sanctions and oil embargo were lifted and Iran regained its ability to freely sell its oil on world markets.

Russia, US and EU were united in their eager desire to sign such agreement with Iran, but for very different reasons. USA: 1. to show a rare success of Obama’s international policies before the end of his term, 2. to dump more oil on the market that would lower world oil price and, therefore, hurt Russian economy. EU: 1. wanted cheap Iranian oil, 2. wanted to make sure Iran couldn’t build a nuclear weapon, 3. not a bad idea to hurt Russian economy.

Many scratched their heads as to what was in it for Russia. After all, Iranian oil flooding the market would lower oil prices and Russian oil exports would suffer. Oil prices did plunge dramatically, thus indeed hurting Russian economy.

But in reality, the oil price plunge was little related to Iran. I wrote about that in detail in Earth Shift Reports ESR5: Syria Game Changer and ESR7: Turkish Conundrum. What did impact the price of oil were several factors: natural boom/bust cycle and related lower demand by China, Saudis/OPEC playing quota games to get rid of competitors, US mass manipulation of oil futures, and ISIS dumping cheap oil through Turkey.

The embargo has been lifted; however, Iran is still not making an impact on oil prices one way or the other. I’ll tell you why below.

The geopolitical games being played are very complex and the intended result isn’t always obvious. Sometimes it becomes obvious to an average person years later, and sometimes, never.

Behind the scenes, Russia and Iran made a deal, according to which Iran would sell most of its excess oil to Russia. In exchange Russia would supply to Iran the coveted S-300 missile systems, which Iran has been requesting for years.

Why would Russia need more oil, you ask? Isn’t there already more than enough?

This deal ensures Iranian oil is taken off the market, thus eliminating its impact on the global price of oil. Because of this deal it is clear that Iranian oil simply could not impact the price of oil. Therefore, ONLY targeted manipulation of oil futures by the US, including Soros/ various hedge funds, and of course, the super-secret USA’s market crash team, all working together, could plunge the price of oil by that much. The target of this manipulation is very well known: it’s Russia, Russia and RUSSIA.

It was a stated goal of Obama and his administration to weaken and destroy Russia through turning Ukraine into anti-Russia and anti-Russian sanctions. They imagined that such catastrophic events would be followed by all-Russia discontent, culminating in national uprising and color revolution -all designed to remove Putin. This, in turn, would lead to Russia’s break up into small, easy to divide and conquer, pieces. This was the original Stratfor plan (read ESR8).

The fact that US, through Kerry or Kissinger, is suddenly again starting to want to talk cooperation with Russia is only because of:

1. Russian success in Syria and the most effective peacemakers I’ve described: S-400 in Kaliningrad and Syria.

2. Putin and Lavrov’s effective diplomacy and the fact that former US allies in the Middle East prefer to talk to Putin rather that Obama.

3. How embarrassing for the US, Obama and his cronies: despite continuing attempts to vilify Putin he is still the world’s most popular leader, while people in the US and EU would prefer Putin as their president.

If this is not the ultimate fiasco and indictment for ‘we are change’ Obama, Kerry, Nuland, Pentagon, Soros, Stratfor/George Friedman, McCain, and their cronies, I don’t know what is! Incidentally, let’s not forget to include on the list Bill and Hillary Clinton, together with their hidden handlers.

But what happens next to the Iranian oil? It goes through Russia to China. As I said, the deal is complex. China buys Iranian oil through Russia, Russia supplies S-300 to Iran. The deal also includes Russia’s very profitable nuclear cooperation with Iran due to Iran’s uranium enrichment cap agreed upon in 2015, which makes Russia a necessary partner. In other words, Iran needs Russia to get enough fuel for its nuclear stations and medical needs, to recycle fuel, and more. In turn, China pays Russia for oil via investments and national currency swaps. Such a neat Eurasian triangle based on mutual interests, I’d say.

Russia supplied S-300 to Iran as soon as the West lifted anti-Iran sanctions. But wait! After the old sanctions were lifted Iran immediately slapped new anti-US sanctions on two thousand American products, including Caca-Cola, American movies, etc. US, in turn, slapped some fresh sanctions on Iran!
